Other than approved soil work for the septic system, does the Health Dept have any other requirements for this kind of hydroponic greenhouse facility? Fire Safety: This CUP request should be reviewed by the Washington County Fire Marshal and Lincoln Rural FD. Planning staff has not received gpm fire flow for the nearest hydrant, but the Fire Marshal has agreed that at this rural location tanker support will be employed.

What concerns do you have? Drainage: The applicant has submitted a Site Plan, Traffic Statement, and a Drainage Statement. *See attached. Zach, do these submittals satisfy the requirement, or will you require a full Traffic Study and/or Drainage Report?
Roads: This project accesses off WC-448, Bush Road. The plans show the development with two driveways. Will driveway tiles be required? The Statement of Intent says the property gently slopes away from the road. Will the development require a paved driveway apron? Do you have any other concerns? Additional (utilities, Sheriff, other): Are utilities available to service this development? Do any utility providers need additional easements? Are all existing easements shown? Are there any concerns from the Sheriff Department about the establishment of this type of business in this area?
